Hidden Beaches of Boracay Island

(Boracay Island, Philippines) For those who want to get away from the tourist crowds at White Beach and see what tropical paradise really means. These are my favorite secret spots on Boracay Island. Don’t tell!

Cagban Beach – hidden beaches of Boracay Island

Cagban Beach

(Treasure Chest Beach) is a calm and peaceful place where the water meets amazing limestone caves. More than a few stories of pirates, Spanish gold, and treasure being hidden here so don’t be surprised if you run into some local kids digging in the sand. They’re not looking for clams, they’re looking for treasure! LOL

Puka Shell Beach

Puka is the Hawaiian word for a hole and the small shells with holes in them that are used to create the famous puka shell necklaces can be found in plenty here. The locals make beautiful jewelry from them. You can take a banka boat from White Beach to get here or come over land. It is the second longest beach in the island and while it’s not a secret, it is certainly less crowded and touristy than White Beach.

Balinghai Beach

In my opinion, Balinghai Beach is the most romantic spot in the island. This rock covered beach provides hundreds of hidden spots to sit and watch the sun as it sinks below the water. There is something divinely wonderful about the way the sounds of the water echo from the rocks here. This is a great place to rent a bungalow or nipa hut and enjoy some serious paradise time with your special someone.

Diniwid Beach

Diniwid Beach

Finally, here is something you may not expect. Just a short walk from White Beach you will find Diniwid Beach. This is a calmer, smaller, and less exhausting resort area. There are places for the public to enjoy as well as private resort facilities including places to have delicious local and international cuisine, ice cold drinks, never-ending fun. The view from the nearby cliffs is priceless.

Boracay is far from ruined. Even White Beach is still fantastic and if you are willing to step off the tourist paths, there are no other things to tell what you will find here except that it is beautiful. Click here >> to Find Hostels in Boracay!
